As soon as possible, my old collector friend!!!

You can call him also Methusalem

I think that when this man was born Willy was already collecting figures to fit in the Noahs Ark that was inspired from a replica of Willy's collection!

I think Willy was the last human who had seen a living mammouth.

...and Torben, did he toldd you about an adventure he had with a trilobite when he was a boy???

Today I got through the last of the contents of The BIG Box. Got them cleaned and took a closer lookHere are the last ones I want to keep. I will not put then in seperate strings, because it won`t make sence.

This guy is from Bullyland and he is really big, he weighs almost 250 g ![You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

More Bullyland. The kittens were so happy that the bucket turned over on the way ;-)[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

A little old Lynx together with one I got last year. He has REALLY been played with, but I think he is much more cute than the newer one.[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Yes, the little hippo is cute, isn`t he ? He almost disapeared in between all the large AAAs.The seller had used the best part of a telephome book to pack each figuere, so I went through all that paper again and again to make sure I did not overlook anything, - almost missed the hippo as he is grey and little

I love that Orangutan also, Harriet. And the way the baby squirms to avoid being kissed She was not part of the box, though, I got her a while ago.

I like the gorilla in the resting position and the mother orang with baby!Nice different positions!

I love those also, they stand in the window (north, sun is never good for plastic) and I enjoy the sight several times a day, thay make me smile

It is really interesting to hear which figueres people prefer, there is room for all of them

Roger, yes, that little fox. Perhaps it is the one that Schleich sold in ´93 as "Authentics". At least it is the same mould and a bit primitive colouring. I think they are SO charming, but unfortunately usually quite expensive So I was VERY happy to find those two, the wolf and the fox in the box , - ha, ha, that is his name from now on : The Fox in the Box

Thanks for your information about the fox in the box! :)In fact it was a unknown series for me, I've found a picture of the Schleich fox in the Deutsch Encyclopedia of animal figures....she looks like walking in the Wonderland but is very funny![You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Torben's picture

I LOVE them also I have had the brown version for many years. The white ones were very often on Ebay, - untill I started looking for them Then there were NO white goats !So I was very happy when they were in the Big Box, as you can imagine

Ha, ha, Fernando, - so far I can`t have visitors staying the night, the guestroom is filled with figueres.And my poor son, when he comes here, he has to go sideways to get to his bed, because his room is filled with boxes

But I know where every single one is and how it looks and it`s condition and shade of colour, - golly, this is MAD

And, - look, see ! The black Buffalo from Papo !Like many of Papo`s figueres he is just SO much more impressive in real "life" than on pictures ![You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

From the top of my Wish List !!!! : May I introduce : The Papo-mandrillbert !!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

But, - perhaps the best of all, - no. Not perhaps, - THE most wonderful Bullyland Procynosuchus Brandnew from the Museum of Korbach !The Procynosuchus lived app 250 MILLION years ago. Fossiles had been found in Africa, and it was determined that it was one of the very first ancestors of mammals.Then one day in 1988 it was discovered that the Procynosuchus had also lived in what is now Europe. In the Korbacher Spalte remains was found, which proved that Europe and Africa was one continent then !!!

Thank you Harriet and Alejandro Yes, I just can`t stop looking. Such a box of gold It is fun to get old stuff and see what is behind the dirt and paper, - I got VERY clean fingers form cleaning the figueres in The Big Box for two days

But, - me, oh my, it is a THRILL and joy to get wonderful brand new figueres, - and then such excellent choice from such a good friend

Great box with nice stuff Susanne!The lying gorilla is a big guy as you said, but she is female... The fox and wolf to the right are both made by safari Ltd, but are exactly the same as the Schleich authentics, because they were made by Safari for Schleich in those days, and sold under license.I think they are still produced, and to be found in many colour-variations because of that.Here are mine to compare.

By the way, I still don't understand why the mandrill is still unavailable in France

Maybe Papo never heard about this country ?

What are you complaining about, it's made in China not in France

Great additions. Congratulations. That poor farmer has been farming a lot. I hope he had some really good crops. I love the kittens and their spilled milk, the gorilla, the foxes, wolf and elephants.

[quote="SUSANNERoger, you will ruin yourself this way [/quote]

Susanne! I'm glad you are happy! Don't worry because a crocodile can be more happy in his ruins than some kings in their castles! :)

Love your pics, stagbert looks really happy to see Hindberta, maybe is too much work for a male to take care of a Fawnbert???That's right, Procybert has something special, maybe its story, no?...and it's always nice to send a Bullyland figure to someone that already sent me a lot of Bullylanders!

Congratulations, is always nice to finish a series, now you have to think in another harder to complete! :)May I say also Hurray for Harriet... and Susanne!?!?!?

Ha, ha, no problem to think of another series I still have not been able to complete my little Bully Forest-series. The badger was on Ebay, but in a "lot" of many nice figueres, so it became much too expensive

Well, it is ok to have something to be looking for even if the long, cold winter nights are almost over
